Explorations of Life and Enlightenment

Welcome!

Blue featherMy name is David “Davidya” Buckland.

This site explores what it means to live life approaching, transitioning, and living in post-personal stages of development; what we often call enlightenment. These stages build on more familiar stages of personal development studied by psychology and biology.

I post articles as they arise, so please subscribe to receive notification of the latest.

This site began in 2007 and contains thousands of articles. During that time, my perspective has grown and I’ve changed how I see and describe our potential unfolding. This evolution continues. You won’t find a list of correct concepts or truths but ways of seeing the spiritual journey, oneself, and the world. Old articles don’t become wrong, I just add other perspectives. Use them to support your journey but don’t confuse a map with the road. Let your direct experience guide you.

And now, the latest blog posts…

Angels Among Us

  Recently, I had a powerful experience with archangel Michael. Soon after, I heard a song by a dear friend and wanted to share the chorus. She died in November 2009, a few months after …

Vimanas

[I originally wrote this article in the summer of 2020 but it got lost in my annoyance with the translation. Trimmed.] Vimanas are ancient flying machines. I’ve recently read a translation of the Vymaanika Shastra …

The Steps of Progress

Often, we have the idea we should be constantly moving forward towards our goals. However, life is cyclic and seasonal. Sometimes, its the season for progress, and sometimes the season for rest. We see these …

Law vs Principle

Recently, I was reading a description of 7 fundamental laws. However, some were laws and some were principles. This may seem a pointless debate on semantics, but using the right terms makes a difference. The …

Stages of Meditation

First, I’ll note this is observations of the process. This is for verification of experience, not something to achieve, a technique, or a way to manipulate your experience. As readers of the blog know, I …

Brahman is Inclusive

It’s hard to describe Brahman as words use comparison and qualities to give meaning. Brahman itself is well beyond that. While we might have some idea about it, even based on inner experiences of emptiness …

Stages of Flying

A discussion from the recent Tips article leads to some points worth discussing on Yogic flying. Why would we even practice siddhis (abilities)? We’re unlikely to get any good at many of them, simply because …
